• The timings indicated in the chart below are for example

purposes only. The actual timing of the Variations and
the marker meta-events (starting with Variation 2)
depends on the length of the recorded Patterns. (The
length of each Pattern can be up to 256 measures.)

• Enter all voice and effect settings in the last three beats

of the Initial Setup area (1|2|000 - 1|4|479). Do not
include any note event data here.

• Start recording Variation 1 data from the second mea-

sure (2|1|000). The length of the data can be from 1 to
256 measures. All measures must be of one of the fol-
lowing time signatures: 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, or 5/4.

• Variation 2 begins from the top of the measure directly

following the last measure of Variation 1. In the chart,
this is listed as 4|1|000; however, the actual timing
depends on the length of Variation 1.

• The following charts indicate the valid MIDI events for

both the Initial Setup data and the Pattern data. Make
sure to NOT enter any events marked with a dash (—),
nor any events not listed here.

Saving and Loading the Sequence Data • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •

• Save the completed sequence data to your computer.
• Save the file using Standard MIDI File Format 0 and make sure that the file extension “.mid” is included in the name.

• Load the Pattern file to the DJX-IIB using the Pattern Launcher software. (Refer to the online Help file in the software

for specific operation instructions.)

About the User Pattern Data • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •

As you create your own Patterns and use them with the DJX-IIB, keep in mind that these User Patterns differ from the
built-in preset Patterns of the DJX-IIB in the following ways:
• The Scratch Pad’s Auto kit (00) does not apply to the User Patterns. Select from any of the other kits (01 - 72) to use

the Scratch Pad with a User Pattern.

• The actual number of taps needed to tap start a Pattern (Tip 56) depends on the time signature of the User pattern. For

example, in the case of a Pattern created in 3/4 beet, tap the BPM/TAP button three times to start the Pattern.

• The FILTER knobs affect all Parts of User Patterns equally.
